A Delhi University’s School of Open Learning (SOL) undergraduate student was arrested after police busted an illegal arms gang operating in the Delhi-NCR region, officials said on Friday.
According to the police, the accused had procured the weapons from Meerut in Uttar Pradesh in multiple transactions and intended to use them for retaliatory attacks against rival gangs.
The accused, identified as Abu Talib (27), was apprehended following a raid conducted on April 14 based on a tip-off.
During the operation, police recovered two pistols with magazines, one country-made firearm, 23 live cartridges and 11 empty shells from his possession.
The police said Talib, who runs a wholesale fruit business with his family and is pursuing graduation from SOL, had also conducted test firing of the weapons.
He has a previous criminal case registered at Farsh Bazar police station in connection with a dispute. Further investigation is underway to identify the supplier and possible links to organised crime networks.
